Don't forget home routers have something called parental controls.

This would put all the power of online safety back into a parents hands and maintain all privacy online for the general public and ones children as well.

I also wish I could just tell my ISP " I don't have kids and have never once had anyone younger than 18 even connect to my wifi" and then they could just mark it to bypass these age checks.

What are you talking about? You think this is some kind of game where we all have to be responsible for ourselves, and create solutions that serve everybody? Get real!

This is Earth! Where the elite make all the rules, and those rules aren't based on logic, or problem solving. They're based on what will make the elite the most money!

So you bet your ass when Mark Facebook Zuckerberg pitches an idea, he's doing so to steal your data, and figure out how to create a problem that needs fixing, which can just so happen be fixed with privacy invasion! Yaaaay! Isn't capitolism grand?

The market has made clear how it feels about consumer freedom. Every consumer option is lost revenue to them.

And to ensure that everyone has a router… everyone will be given a state issued router with personal identification that they must use.
